devils102 9 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Weird... He's not resigned, Lou saying he was always under contract. At least that's what I'm getting from TG's tweet. I guess unless he's fired he'll be back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maxpower 21 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Strange, how the hell long is his original deal if he wasn't re-upped? 5? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MadDog2020 8,568 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Strange, how the hell long is his original deal if he wasn't re-upped? 5? They probably just agreed on an extension and it was Lou being Lou. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hystyk28 22 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Unlike most people, I am very happy Pete is the coach. He did a lot with very little. On a side note, Sislo should have been up all season instead of Bernier or JJ. Edited April 13, 2014 by hystyk28 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
2ELIAS6 260 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 sounds fair to me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
devils102 9 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) They probably just agreed on an extension and it was Lou being Lou. Yeah I'm leaning towards that as well. Unless the lockout year caused some confusion with his contract. Lou apparently going to make an announcement on MSG "soon". Could be about this. Or maybe Ilka Pikarainen is coming back. EDIT: Yeah it is going to be about Pete. Edited April 13, 2014 by devils102 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

maxpower 21 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Of course the screwball possibility is that he was about to pull a Sutter and he just got fvcked Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MadDog2020 8,568 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Of course the screwball possibility is that he was about to pull a Sutter and he just got fvcked Haha imagine that. 'Leaving Pete? Oh no you aren't, I just exercised your club option'. Wily Lou. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike Brown 186 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 The players respect him too much. I like bringing him back. Now the ball is in Lou's court to get Pete the pieces to make this team a legit contender again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maxpower 21 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 You never know. Lou causing a big scene is kind of weird and his contract situation is kind of weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

coldply123 13 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 He will get fired once the team fails again next year. Whatever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zubie#8 193 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) My wish list for Pete: Statsny Gionta Vrbata Henrique Zajac Jagr Elias Statsny Vrbata Gionta Zubrus Brunner Carter Gionta (insert any) Greene Fayne Zidlicky Volchenkov Merrill Larsson Gelinas Schneider/ No Marty =profit I can dream lol Edited April 13, 2014 by Zubie#8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thecoffeecake 397 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) He will get fired once the team fails again next year. Whatever. If you think Pete needs to go, you're still stuck in the delusion that the Devils need to compete every year simply because they're the Devils. This roster was trash, no one else was getting another ounce out of this team. Not Lemaire, not Bylsma, not Roy, not Scotty Bowman. Accept that this team was just bad. He still managed to put together one of the best, if not the best, defense in the league.

Except unless Clowe has suffered brain damage, he's going to need to play. Edited April 13, 2014 by thecoffeecake Quote Link to post Share on other sites
